these things or bestow any enconium upon the character of a man 

 like Dr. Jewell here where his life was so well known as a compen- 

 dium of g-enerous thought and practical goodness. The words of 

 the funeral address are fittingly eloquent and comprehensive: 



"He carried about with him everywhere an atmosphere of spirit- 

 ual dignity which was felt as a reproach to all meanness; of chast- 

 ity whose very presence rebuked vulgarity; of simplicity which 

 made liars ashamed, and of moral enthusiasm which inspired, en- 

 couraged and uplifted all weaker aspiring and all wavering souls 

 with whom he came in contact." 



The funeral tribute of love and honor was paid on Monday after- 

 noon. The occasion was respectfully observed by a very large con- 

 course of friends, who were present to mingle their offerings in the 

 last rites that can be shown the dead by the living. The spacious 

 rooms of the residence were filled with sj^mpathizing friends, while 

 many, unable to obtain admission, occupied settees that wereplaced 

 on the lawn in close proximity to the parlor windows. The exer- 

 cises partook of an unusual but nevertheless pleasing character, in 

 being conducted by an intimate personal friend of the deceased, 

 (not a clergyman) Dr. T. H. Evarts, of Rushford. The remains were 

 followed to their last resting place in the cenaetery by a large pro- 

 cession of citizens, who administered the final rites of friendship 

 in depositing the form of their late beloved townsman 



'• beneath the low green tent 

 Whose curtain never outward swings. 



" Peace to tlie true man's ashes ! Weep for those 

 Whose days in old delusions have grown dim; 

 Such lives as his are triumphs, and their close 

 An immortality : weep not for him. 



" A practical rebuker of vain strife; 



Bolder in deeds than words, from beardless youth 

 To the white hairs of age, he made his life 

 A beautiful consecration to the truth." 



Apples for the ComplexiOxV.— " The secret of a bad complexion," 

 said a well known physician recently, "is a bad digestion, and we 

 generally trace that to a bad liver. One of the best remedies for a 

 sluggish liver is cheap and pleasant. Dieting is the secret of the 

 cure. The best liver regulator for persons of sedentary habits — and 

 those are the ones whose complexions are muddy — is to be found in 

 apples, eaten baked if they are not well digested when eaten raw. I 

 attended the pupils at a well known boarding school, and among 

 them was a country girl whose complexion was the envy of all her 

 associates. I found that she was a very light eater at her meals, but 

 she had a peculiar custom of taking a plate of apples to her room at 

 night and eating them slowly as she studied her lessons. This was 

 her regular practice. Some of the other girls in the institution took 

 it up, and I know, as a result of my personal investigation, that the 

 apple eating girls had the best complexions of any in the school." —
